Craig Berube speaks candidly about Joseph Woll
While speaking to the media today, head coach Craig Berube spoke about the Woll situation, noting that the team misses him and is thinking about him right now.
It's obviously a tough situation for him. We're all here to support him and do what we can to help. That's really it-he needs to do what he needs to do.
We're all thinking about him, we miss him, and we're here to support him as best we can.
Joseph Woll is a very well-liked player within the organization, so it makes sense that the team would be showcasing this level of concern right now.
At the end of the day, the Leafs have shown themselves to be supportive of any player who might be going through some kind of difficult time.
Either way, we are very sad to hear about what Woll is going through right now, and our thoughts are with him.
We hope he and his family get through this horrible time.
